Snowplow Android and iOS Trackers version 3.0 released

Announcements New releases
1

We are pleased to announce the release of our mobile trackers: Snowplow iOS Tracker and Android Tracker version 3.0.

This release completes the transition started with the previous major release v2.0, completely removing support for the old v1.0 API. The platform context now includes information about memory, storage, and battery usage. With this new version we provide two new events out-of-the-box: DeepLinkReceived and MessageNotification. Furthermore, each event tracked can be attached with a Lifecycle context indicating if the app is in background or foreground state and a DeepLink context attached to the first ScreenView tracked after a DeepLinkReceived.

Use the Quick Start Guide to rapidly instrument the tracker in your app.

If you have already instrumented one of the previous 1.x versions, there are some breaking changes to consider, so I recommend to consult the Migration Guides.

More details about what’s changed in the release blog post.
